“In approximately February of 2005,... at that meeting was Gov. Tim Walz.”

At that particular time, I would like to know what exactly was his rank.

There is no way he could have been a CSM and no explanation how or when he achieved that rank.

[Ret. Command Sgt. Maj. Thomas Behrends] said Walz had been promoted to command sergeant major in 2004, but claimed he was required to serve two additional years or the promotion would be void. His early retirement terminated the promotion, reducing his rank to master sergeant, Behrends said.
